With nearly a decade of hands-on experience, Steven Williams founded Scrub & Shine Southwest with a simple goal: to deliver the highest standard of [exterior cleaning](/services) and maintenance across [Plymouth](/plymouth) and the South West. What started as a passion for [pressure washing](/pressure-washing-plymouth) has grown into a trusted, full-service business covering [roof cleaning](/roof-cleaning-plymouth), [gutter maintenance](/gutter-cleaning-maintenance), [softwashing](/k-render-cleaning-services) and [commercial property care](/commercial-cleaning-services). - Over 9 years of hands-on experience - Fully insured — £5M public liability cover - Background in the building trade - Free, no-obligation estimates - Domestic & commercial specialists [Read more about us →](/about) ## Why Plymouth Customers Choose Scrub & Shine Six concrete reasons homeowners and commercial clients across the South West keep coming back. ### Fully Insured to £5M Every job is covered by £5 million public liability insurance. Working at height on roofs, gutters and rendered walls means proper cover isn't optional — it's the baseline. ### Building-Trade Background Steven came up through the building trade before specialising in exterior cleaning. Loose ridge tiles, blocked downpipes and failing render get spotted and flagged — not painted over. ### You Speak to the Owner No call centres, no scripts. The person quoting your job is the person on site. That means clearer communication, faster decisions and fewer surprises on the day. ### Right Method for the Surface Slate, clay tiles, K-Rend, Indian sandstone and block paving all need different treatment. We use low-pressure softwashing where pressure would damage the surface, never a one-size-fits-all approach. ### Free, Fixed-Price Quotes Every quote is written, itemised and free. The price you're quoted is the price you pay — no day-rate creep, no add-ons appearing on the invoice. ### Genuinely Local Based in Plymouth (PL6) and working across Devon and Cornwall daily.

[Leave Us a Google Review](https://share.google/cRhL7mfmKZFNRugtN) ## Serving Plymouth, Devon & Cornwall We cover a wide area across the South West, providing professional [exterior cleaning services](/services) wherever you need us — from [pressure washing](/pressure-washing-plymouth) to [roof cleaning](/roof-cleaning-plymouth). Our base in Plymouth (PL6) means we cover the full city — PL1 to PL9 — including Plympton, Plymstock, Mannamead, Mutley, Whitleigh, Southway, Woolwell and Sherford. We're typically on site within a few working days for surveys and book most domestic work in the same week. From Plymouth we work daily across the South Hams (Ivybridge, Kingsbridge, Wembury, Brixton, Cornwood), South East Cornwall (Saltash, Torpoint, Downderry, St Germans, Liskeard, Bere Alston) and the wider South West — including Tavistock, Exeter, Torquay, Bodmin, Newquay and Bude.

Mild, damp winters and salt-laden coastal air create near-perfect conditions for moss, lichen and black algae to take hold on roof tiles, render and paving. Left untreated, that biological growth holds moisture against the surface, accelerates frost damage and can shorten the lifespan of a tiled roof by years. This is why [roof cleaning in Plymouth](/roof-cleaning-plymouth) and softwashing of K-Rend and silicone render are some of the most-requested jobs we carry out. Local housing stock matters too. The 1930s semis around Mannamead and Mutley, the post-war estates in Whitleigh and Southway, the new-build developments in Sherford and Saltram Meadow, and the rendered coastal homes in Wembury, Downderry and Kingsbridge all weather differently. Concrete interlocking tiles common on Plymouth estates trap moss along the laps; natural slate in conservation areas needs careful low-pressure treatment; modern silicone-based renders demand the right pH cleaning solution or the colour can be stripped. A blanket pressure-wash approach causes more damage than dirt — which is why we match the method to the surface every time, across [pressure washing](/pressure-washing-plymouth), [softwashing](/k-render-cleaning-services) and [gutter maintenance](/gutter-cleaning-maintenance). Gutters take a particular hammering down here. Leaves from the mature trees lining streets in Mannamead, Plympton and Tavistock, combined with prevailing south-westerly rain, mean blocked downpipes are one of the leading causes of damp on Plymouth properties — and one of the cheapest problems to prevent. An annual gutter clear, paired with a soft-wash treatment for north-facing roof slopes, is genuinely the most cost-effective maintenance most homeowners in the region can do. We work across PL1 to PL9, plus Ivybridge, Tavistock, Saltash, Torpoint, Liskeard and out to Exeter, Torquay, Bodmin, Newquay and Bude — covering the whole of the [South West service area](/areas) from a single Plymouth base. ## Current Specials Take advantage of our latest offers and get your property looking its best.
